The soundtrack of the documentary of the same name in "The God of Sushi" is amazing. The opening chapter is a symphony. The violin's bow-jumping technique is lively and joyful, which complements the switching of frame-by-frame images. It seems that you can hear the melody without looking at the screen. Some of the clues and rhythms of the story. Jiro Ono's skillful technique is full of bright musicality, and various ingredients and seasonings are like tadpoles on a symphony score, and together they compose a moving multi-part movement. "The God of Sushi" brings the audience far more than its food theme. Ono Jiro's words and deeds are like the four words he wrote one by one - career and official affairs. In the film, the audience will see the hard work and uncompromising beliefs and attitudes behind the delicious sushi. The whole film shows the spirit of Japanese Zen culture, which is very strong. Including the pursuit of the ultimate craftsman spirit for specific things.

Jiro Dreams of Sushi quotes

  • Jiro Ono: When I was in school... I was a bad kid. Later, when I was invited to give a talk at the school, I wasn't sure if I should tell the kids that they should study hard... or that it is okay to be a rebel. I wasn't sure what advice to give the kids. Studying hard doesn't guarantee you will become a respectable person. Even if you're a bad kid... there are people like me who change. I thought that would be a good lesson to teach. But if I said that bad kids can succeed later on like I did... all the kids would start misbehaving which would be a problem. Always doing what you are told doesn't mean you'll succeed in life.

  • Yoshikazu Ono: [on one of his fish vendors] His grandfather was known as "the god of sea eel." He was a legend. I've never met him in person, but that's what I've heard.
